Can't imagine better for a varmint rifle around this price point.
I've had a few weeks to play with mine now, and I'm done looking for anything better. This thing is more than solid enough for varmint-caliber rifles. Some have complained that the parallel sides of the clamp don't hold the rounded contours of their rifles well. This is easily overcome with the application of some adhesive neoprene sheet cut to fit the saddle's gripping/contact surfaces, or even just a piece of thin foam rubber nested between saddle and stock.Mine arrived with a head that wouldn't pan easily and exhibited a ratcheting sensation when forced to turn side-to-side; a quick email to BOG Products yielded a suggested adjustment within 24 hours that handily solved the issue.This is made/sold by Battenfeld Technologies, Inc., which is part of Larry Potterfield's commercial empire along with Frankfort Arsenal (reloading tools), Wheeler Engineering (gunsmithing tools), Caldwell (rests, chronographs, adaptors) and a few others - and its availability through Amazon made it a bit easier for my wife to find in my Wish List than through Mr. Potterfield's "MidwayUSA" gateway.I wanted a tripod that would work for any position: bench, seated, kneeling, from a ground blind, leaning back against my truck... and this one even flattens down far enough to be usable in the prone position, depending upon what angles the ground takes between my position and my target. The rubber feet screw up around the threaded, pointed shafts on which they are mounted to expose steel pointed tips which worked great when I had to set up on a frozen puddle in a meadow.My alternative plan was to use a surveyor's level tripod with a 5/8-11 to 1/4-20 head adaptor, a separate ball head with ARCA-Swiss attachment, and a saddle clamp from another manufacturer, which would have given me a tripod that wouldn't go short enough for sitting, nor kneeling facing a downhill slope, and certainly not prone shooting, and I'd have still spent more even with cheap imported parts.I took a 6" long piece of oak 2" x 4" (true dimension) lumber and screwed in a stud that was lag-threaded on one end and 1/4-20 on the other, which I can clamp into the saddle and attach a small $20 ball head to use this tripod for binoculars, spotting scope, camera, or a light chronograph. I screwed another chunk of 2"x4" edge-wise to a 16" x 20" x 1" deep baking pan, sprayed the whole thing with a can of cheap truck bed liner, and now I can clamp that in as well for a hasty small table that stuff won't roll off of. I can raise the whole thing to maximum height and clamp in a length of aluminum/steel/PVC tubing, attach a seine net to the tube with zip ties, and have a "wall" to catch brass positioned to my right at the range. (Gathering the bottom of the net into a 5 gallon bucket collects all of my brass without having to attach anything to the rifle itself, or take up space on the bench.)My wife wants me to get another one so we can run a pipe or 2"x4" across them with hooks on it to hold camp cookware & utensils, drying shoes, or a tarp to create a wind break or rain shelter for gear. It holds a rechargeable LED work light nicely after the sun sets and I pack up my blind from a session of varminting.The only thing I'd like to see added is a hook on the bottom of the center for hanging my day pack, but a few loops of para cord around the legs ought to give me an adequate connecting point for the carabiner I keep on my pack's top handle. And when I get home, it makes a nice hanging rack for wet gear out in the garage.At this price point, I'm not afraid to molest it with some para cord, tape, and/or spray paint to "customize" it for specific passing needs; but the basic design and quality is just perfect out of the box, and I wouldn't ask the manufacturer to change anything that would increase its price.

Great product!
Can't beat these for hunting coyote in my area. My best friend had one and I was sold quick as we tried his out! Holds you firearm solid without damage yet gives you the freedom to move 360° on the fly without any adjustments. Just a great design and honestly if I wasn't a cheap penny pincher i would have bought the carbon fiber one for hunting and the aluminum for my range. It is a little heavy but it soaks up a lot of recoil out of your shots. Highly recommend this to any man that shoots or hunts. Honestly it would be perfect for women that hunt too it adjusts to any height from 7" to 59" without hassle or compromise. Definitely suggest carbon fiber if you can afford it but you can't go wrong with the aluminum model.

Very sturdy
Very sturdily built. Legs adjust quickly and easily. It offers an extremely stable platform from any position. Now it's not the lightest, but if you cut weight and you start losing that ruggedness. The quick adjust on the leg angles is also very handy. I'm very happy with this purchase and impressed with it's quality. I would buy one again in a heartbeat. I'll throw in that I'm 6'3" and it's plenty tall for me standing up shooting

Solid
The BOG DeathGrip Tripod is a game-changer for hunting. Its sturdy aluminum frame and locking clamp hold your rifle steady in any terrain. Quick to set up, ultra-stable, and adjustable for sitting, kneeling, or standing. A must-have for serious hunters!

Stable tripod for Coyote Hunting
Very stable tripod platform. A little on the heavy side but managable. Only 1 thing I can recommend is to get 5 or 10 rd mags ( I was using a 30 rd mag on an AR 15 platform) to be able to rotate your rifle 360 degrees. Otherwise, the mag hits the legs of tripod.

A good product but,,
I got mine yesterday. First impressions are very good. This thing is very sturdy, and the design is very good. The reason for only 4 stars? All of adjustment screws were screwed down so tight that you couldn't get any of the functions to work correctly. The head would not pan left or right but a couple inches and you really had to twist it hard to get it move. There is a screw, with an allen head on it, located on the bottom of the head. There is a rubber cap about 1/2' in diameter that hides it. Pop that off and you can adjust the tension(counter clockwise) on the head where it will rotate. Snap the little cap back on and you're done. The clamps that secure then legs should be loose enough that you can unsnap and snap back quickly, Mine were so tight that you could not extend the legs. Again there are allen screws that you can rotate counterclockwise to loosen them where they'll work. Evidently, at the factory they just screw them down as tight as they will go. You shouldn't have to mess with all of that to use a new product. Thank goodness I have some ability to figure these things out or i would have had to send it back. Also, the big wheel that secures the gun in place tends to start backing off slightly with every shot. Not much but if you don't pay attention to that your gun could slide off of the saddle when you tilt it forward or back. I hope this stays together over time and think it probably will but it's worth noting that you should keep an eye on all of the tension screws etc. Another note: You will have to practice with this a LOT to see how your gun likes to be held in this. Your POI can be much different than shooting off of a bench.Finally, I do like this tripod but it's certainly not a cure all for anything other than having your gun set up and ready to go. It's not 100% stable even when everything is tightened down but it's workable. You'll just have to figure out what works for you and your gun.

Great tripod..took everything I put on it with ease.
I got this on sale for $110 and man it's nice. First one I've owned and I finally got to use it yesterday. Idk if I'd pay $200 for it, but if you catch it on sale grab it without hesitation.
